On the next day they drove to London. They visited the London Eye, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, the Thames, St. Paul´s Cathedral, Hyde Park, Tower Bridge and the Olympic Stadium.

One day later was the family day and many families went to the swimming pool or played Mini-Golf. In the evening the families met each other for a big bowling match with their guests from Germany and the teachers. Every family had one alley for playing. During the match there was very modern music. When they got hungry they all went to the bowling restaurant and ate lettuce with tomatoes, cheese, bacon, gherkin, mushrooms radish and a dressing.
After the last bowling round the winner was Veronica Lodge with her guest family. This night they all slept quickly.
In the morning after breakfast all German and English students met at 9 o`clock with their teachers at “Jack Jonson School “. A big red bus drove them from school to “Victoria Zoo “. After they arrived at the zoo the sun shone very warm for an autumn day. On their way to the ibex enclosure they had to go up the steep steps. The huge rocks were build like the real mountains. The ibex jumped from rock to rock.

Tower Bridge




Welcome to the Tower Bridge!            
Plans for the Tower Bridge were devised around 1876 when the east of London became extremely crowded and a bridge across the Thames in that area of the city seemed a necessity. It would take another eight years - and lots of discussions about the design - before construction of the bridge started.
Five contractors and nearly 450 workers were involved in the construction of the 265 meter long bridge. It took 11,000 tons of steel to build the framework. At the time many people disliked its Victorian Gothic design, but over time the bridge became one of London's most famous symbols. The total length of the Tower Bridge is 244 meters. 

The longest span is 61 meters. The Tower Bridge was opened on June 30th 1894.
Taking photographs of the Tower Bridge is a favorite London tourist activity, but you can also go inside the bridge, where you'll have a magnificent view over London from the walkway between the two bridge towers.
